This is my latest, (February, 2019), and my first with HarperCollins. If you talk to people for a living (journalism, social work, human resources, nursing, financial planning, podcasting, even parenting!) this is a book that will help you get more out of your interactions with other human beings.

There are a lot of tools and how-to pieces of advice; I also deconstruct some interviews and tell why they went well and why they didn’t.

If you want to connect more deeply with others, and experience that transcendent space you enter when you see beyond each others’ walls, then this book is for you.

I hope you think it’s funny, too.

It is based on my experience of being a journalist for more than 40 years, and of hosting the annual Writer’s Symposium By The Sea for more than 20 years. You’ll recognize some of the names I drop.

But essentially, this is a book that will help you connect and honor each other. You can order it here.
